Default GS owners: what is your wheel/tire setup? issues.

Everyone please participate:

1. Wheel size (diameter" x width") of front and rear
2. Tires size on the front and rear?
3. how inches is the car dropped?
4. offset of front and rear wheels?
5. Rubbing issues?

Thank YOU!!

Sorry. Did not measure drop. Used to have 1 finger front and 1/2 finger rear. No rub issues. It is now raised to more like 2 finger front and 1 rear. Easier to drive around town.
